It is often overlooked that sign_extend32(), despite its name, is safe to use for 16 and 8 bit types as well. This should help prevent sign extension being done manually some other way. Signed-off-by:

Many flag options are boolean and support both a positive and a negative invocation from the command line. Some of these are even mentioned by example (e.g., --nogit is mentioned as a default option), but they aren't explicitly mentioned in the list of options. It happens that some of these are pretty important, as they are default-on, and to turn them off, you have to know about the --no-foo version. Rather than clutter the whole help text with bracketed '--[no]foo', let's just mention the general rule, a la 'man gcc'. Signed-off-by:

The following statement of ABI/testing/dev-kmsg is not quite right: It is not possible to inject messages from userspace with the facility number LOG_KERN (0), to make sure that the origin of the messages can always be reliably determined. Userland actually can inject messages with a facility of 0 by abusing the fact that the facility is stored in a u8 data type. By using a facility which is a multiple of 256 the assignment of msg->facility in log_store() implicitly truncates it to 0, i.e. LOG_KERN, allowing users of /dev/kmsg to spoof kernel messages as shown below: The following call... # printf '<%d>Kernel panic - not syncing: beer empty\n' 0 >/dev/kmsg ...leads to the following log entry (dmesg -x | tail -n 1): user :emerg : [ 66.137758] Kernel panic - not syncing: beer empty However, this call... # printf '<%d>Kernel panic - not syncing: beer empty\n' 0x800 >/dev/kmsg ...leads to the slightly different log entry (note the kernel facility): kern :emerg : [ 74.177343] Kernel panic - not syncing: beer empty Fix that by limiting the user provided facility to 8 bit right from the beginning and catch the truncation early.

This adds a simple module for testing the kernel's printf facilities. Previously, some %p extensions have caused a wrong return value in case the entire output didn't fit and/or been unusable in kasprintf(). This should help catch such issues. Also, it should help ensure that changes to the formatting algorithms don't break anything. I'm not sure if we have a struct dentry or struct file lying around at boot time or if we can fake one, but most %p extensions should be testable, as should the ordinary number and string formatting. The nature of vararg functions means we can't use a more conventional table-driven approach. For now, this is mostly a skeleton; contributions are very welcome. Some tests are/will be slightly annoying to write, since the expected output depends on stuff like CONFIG_*, sizeof(long), runtime values etc. Signed-off-by:

As a quick git grep -E '%[ +0#-]*#[ +0#-]*(\*|[0-9]+)?(\.(\*|[0-9]+)?)?p' shows, nobody uses the # flag with %p. Should one try to do so, one will be met with warning: `#' flag used with `%p' gnu_printf format [-Wformat] (POSIX and C99 both say "... For other conversion specifiers, the behavior is undefined.". Obviously, the kernel can choose to define the behaviour however it wants, but as long as gcc issues that warning, users are unlikely to show up.) Since default_width is effectively always 2*sizeof(void*), we can simplify the prologue of pointer() and save a few instructions. Signed-off-by:

Quoting from 2aa2f9e2 ("lib/vsprintf.c: improve sanity check in vsnprintf()"): On 64 bit, size may very well be huge even if bit 31 happens to be 0. Somehow it doesn't feel right that one can pass a 5 GiB buffer but not a 3 GiB one. So cap at INT_MAX as was probably the intention all along. This is also the made-up value passed by sprintf and vsprintf. I should have seen this copy-pasted instance back then, but let's just do it now. Signed-off-by:

Rasmus Villemoes authored
If we meet any invalid or unsupported format specifier, 'handling' it by just printing it as a literal string is not safe: Presumably the format string and the arguments passed gcc's type checking, but that means something like sprintf(buf, "%n %pd", &intvar, dentry) would end up interpreting &intvar as a struct dentry*. When the offending specifier was %n it used to be at the end of the format string, but we can't rely on that always being the case. Also, gcc doesn't complain about some more or less exotic qualifiers (or 'length modifiers' in posix-speak) such as 'j' or 'q', but being unrecognized by the kernel's printf implementation, they'd be interpreted as unknown specifiers, and the rest of arguments would be interpreted wrongly. So let's complain about anything we don't understand, not just %n, and stop pretending that we'd be able to make sense of the rest of the format/arguments. If the offending specifier is in a printk() call we unfortunately only get a "BUG: recent printk recursion!", but at least direct users of the sprintf family will be caught. Signed-off-by:

Move all pointer-formatting documentation to one place in the code and one place in the documentation instead of keeping it in three places with different level of completeness. Documentation/printk-formats.txt has detailed information about each modifier, docstring above pointer() has short descriptions of them (as that is the function dealing with %p) and docstring above vsprintf() is removed as redundant. Both docstrings in the code that were modified are updated with a reminder of updating the documentation upon any further change. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix comment] Signed-off-by:

Hugh has pointed that compound_head() call can be unsafe in some context. There's one example: CPU0 CPU1 isolate_migratepages_block() page_count() compound_head() !!PageTail() == true put_page() tail->first_page = NULL head = tail->first_page alloc_pages(__GFP_COMP) prep_compound_page() tail->first_page = head __SetPageTail(p); !!PageTail() == true <head == NULL dereferencing> The race is pure theoretical. I don't it's possible to trigger it in practice. But who knows. We can fix the race by changing how encode PageTail() and compound_head() within struct page to be able to update them in one shot. The patch introduces page->compound_head into third double word block in front of compound_dtor and compound_order. Bit 0 encodes PageTail() and the rest bits are pointer to head page if bit zero is set. The patch moves page->pmd_huge_pte out of word, just in case if an architecture defines pgtable_t into something what can have the bit 0 set. hugetlb_cgroup uses page->lru.next in the second tail page to store pointer struct hugetlb_cgroup. The patch switch it to use page->private in the second tail page instead. The space is free since ->first_page is removed from the union. The patch also opens possibility to remove HUGETLB_CGROUP_MIN_ORDER limitation, since there's now space in first tail page to store struct hugetlb_cgroup pointer. But that's out of scope of the patch. That means page->compound_head shares storage space with: - page->lru.next; - page->next; - page->rcu_head.next; That's too long list to be absolutely sure, but looks like nobody uses bit 0 of the word. page->rcu_head.next guaranteed[1] to have bit 0 clean as long as we use call_rcu(), call_rcu_bh(), call_rcu_sched(), or call_srcu(). But future call_rcu_lazy() is not allowed as it makes use of the bit and we can get false positive PageTail().

The patch halves space occupied by compound_dtor and compound_order in struct page. For compound_order, it's trivial long -> short conversion. For get_compound_page_dtor(), we now use hardcoded table for destructor lookup and store its index in the struct page instead of direct pointer to destructor. It shouldn't be a big trouble to maintain the table: we have only two destructor and NULL currently. This patch free up one word in tail pages for reuse. This is preparation for the next patch.

Each `struct size_class' contains `struct zs_size_stat': an array of NR_ZS_STAT_TYPE `unsigned long'. For zsmalloc built with no CONFIG_ZSMALLOC_STAT this results in a waste of `2 * sizeof(unsigned long)' per-class. The patch removes unneeded `struct zs_size_stat' members by redefining NR_ZS_STAT_TYPE (max stat idx in array). Since both NR_ZS_STAT_TYPE and zs_stat_type are compile time constants, GCC can eliminate zs_stat_inc()/zs_stat_dec() calls that use zs_stat_type larger than NR_ZS_STAT_TYPE: CLASS_ALMOST_EMPTY and CLASS_ALMOST_FULL at the moment. ./scripts/bloat-o-meter mm/zsmalloc.o.old mm/zsmalloc.o.new add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 0/3 up/down: 0/-39 (-39) function old new delta fix_fullness_group 97 94 -3 insert_zspage 100 86 -14 remove_zspage 141 119 -22 To summarize: a) each class now uses less memory b) we avoid a number of dec/inc stats (a minor optimization, but still).

In obj_malloc(): if (!class->huge) /* record handle in the header of allocated chunk */ link->handle = handle; else /* record handle in first_page->private */ set_page_private(first_page, handle); In the hugepage we save handle to private directly. But in obj_to_head(): if (class->huge) { VM_BUG_ON(!is_first_page(page)); return *(unsigned long *)page_private(page); } else return *(unsigned long *)obj; It is used as a pointer. The reason why there is no problem until now is huge-class page is born with ZS_FULL so it can't be migrated.

`mem_used_max' is designed to store the max amount of memory zram consumed to store the data. However, it does not represent the actual 'overcommited' (max) value. The existing code goes to -ENOMEM overcommited case before it updates `->stats.max_used_pages', which hides the reason we went to -ENOMEM in the first place -- we actually used more memory than `->limit_pages': alloced_pages = zs_get_total_pages(meta->mem_pool); if (zram->limit_pages && alloced_pages > zram->limit_pages) { zs_free(meta->mem_pool, handle); ret = -ENOMEM; goto out; } update_used_max(zram, alloced_pages); Which is misleading. User will see -ENOMEM, check `->limit_pages', check `->stats.max_used_pages', which will keep the value BEFORE zram passed `->limit_pages', and see: `->stats.max_used_pages' < `->limit_pages' Move update_used_max() before we do `->limit_pages' check, so that user will see: `->stats.max_used_pages' > `->limit_pages' should the overcommit and -ENOMEM happen.
